I have been to the market, out for breakfast and have hacked away at shrubbery. I get the rest of the day off, right?
I bet the shrubbery votes yes.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

I should sweep outside, but the tree hasn't dumped its helicoptery petal things (different than those helicopter brown things) just the polleny stuff, so I just might wait. And hope for a good gullywasher to take care of most of it. Luckily, Anna is down with this plan, so I won't get shamed out of my laziness.
OH! And new neighbor is named Franz. But I still haven't met him. Old neighbors just told me he was really nice and letting them store stuff in the garage for them to pick up today.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, Steph!
I'm feeling a little guilty about calling home. I usually do it Sunday after the ER, now that it's not every two days panic stations anymore. And that's low energy. I called this morning because I hadn't been able to get in touch on Mummy's birthday, and since I hadn't done anything yet, I had spoons.
Very different phone convo. But I am probably going back to Sundays because that almost tired me out too much for my haircut (which I expect to sap everything, but my last cut was pretty shit, and I look like ass, so no more delaying if I want to be able to go among the people).
Ah, well.
I asked my sister to hook my mother's new computer up to the wifi and create her a Dropbox account to transfer her files, and it's by far better response than I got from developers all week at work, and she could have done some of those tasks too...

The status is NOT quo.
Brave is so much better than the previews suggest. It's really a story about parents and children, specifically mothers and daughters. I absolutely loved it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, here's a weird cocktail question: I want to bring French 75s to a party without too much hassle. Should I mix the simple syrup and lemon juice ahead of time? Can I mix the simple, lemon, AND gin?

Oh, never mind -- I don't have a container big enough for all three together.

I think it's rated PG, isn't it? I don't think it was intended for young children. I loved it so much.
